I'll get the second volume defo but will see if there's content in the first I don't have...

Ahem... Rebellion's experienced Reprographics team have restored all the original colour pages, which have never been reprinted before.

Ah, well I think I'll keep an eye on things.  On the plus side there is this and the possibility of a second volume.  That however has to be offset against the quality of Titan's hardback editions. 

At £14.99 I'm assuming that these are SC.  That is something I'm not too keen on.  Then again Rebellion seem to be getting more into the idea of Webshop exclusives so maybe we'll get lucky ...

Luckily for digital it does not matter  :D
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

October solicitations are out are there's some interesting stuff.

Incredible SF action from the Eisner-nominated UK anthology! Judge Dredd deals with the aftermath of the Four Horseman as a chaotic city picks up the pieces in "Carry the Nine"; Stickleback fights for the soul of London in "New Jerusalem"; there's horror below the waves in the new supernatural series by Alec Worley and Leigh Gallagher; Nolan Blake goes on the run with a targeted pop star in Skip Tracer: "Hyperballad"; and Celtic warrior Slaine tames dragons in "The Web of Weird"!
In Shops: Nov 11, 2020
SRP: $34.99

Interesting line-up. Intrigued to see what 'New Jerusalem' is like.

More action and adventure in the future-shocked world of Judge Dredd! The incredible line-up that began in the 30th anniversary issue continues: John Wagner and Colin MacNeil tackle the America legacy; Ken Niemand and Dave Taylor delve into corruption in high places in Dreddverse reimagining "Megatropolis"; Judge Death is revered in "Deliverance" by David Hine and Nick Percival; the Judges make their presence felt in "Dreadnoughts" by Mike Carroll and John Higgins; and The Returners are drawn to a strange house in Brit-Cit in "Heartswood" by Si Spencer and Nicolo Assirelli! Plus in the bagged mini-trade, there's more terror and strangeness from the world of Bob Byrne!

SRP: $15.99

Given there's no Lawless this seems like a very strong line-up.

On top of those we have Vol. 2 of Thirteenth Floor, Dracula Files gets a fresh printing (if you count Hibernia's) and the Case Files reaches 35 and Sin City.

Tharg's obviously a fan of Skip Tracer. I guess it needs a re-read, but I've found it pretty by-the-numbers and bland so far—certainly not the kind of strip that I'd imagined would get such regular outings.

Leigh S

Yeah, not a fan of Skip Tracer and the continued use of song/album titles really is a way to make me double down on it - It seems about as generic as you can get, with added magically powered hero magically negotiating their way through plots powered by magical macguffinery.  If it felt like that was all a route to something new or some critique of that I gues sit might be worht it, but this many series in, I'm not holding out much hope for that - more Leigh Gallgher and Pat will work for me  I'm sure!

The boards view of a strip does not necessary translate to the general popularity of a strip. I do not have an issue with Skip but I would rather have more Brass Sun or even the return of Helium.

The thing to bear in mind is that Tooth needs content every single week. Skip Tracer is the price Squaxx have to pay for the massive lead time in the likes of the next Stickleback outing, Manco's Slaine series and Bisley's Joe Pineapples solo.

Which one will we get with the bundle, hm?

That's Keith Burns on cover duty right? Very strong image really interested on how it will look when 'folded'.

Yes that is Keith Burns. Hopefully we can get a Johnny Red story as well. For any Keith Burns and Johnny Red fans you must check out the Titan mini-series written by Garth Ennis.

I have literally just got it out my nerd cave for a re-read sometime in the next month or so!
